Charge and sync your newer Apple iPod®, iPhone®, or iPad® with the Lightning™ connector using this Lightning to USB Charge/Sync Cable from Monoprice!

This cable is designed specifically for the newer Apple devices, such as the iPhone 5, which use the Lightning connector. The connector head on the Lightning end measures about 5.5mm thick, 11mm wide, and 18mm long. The connector head on the USB end measures about 8mm thick, 16mm wide, and 19mm long.

Apple, iPod, iPhone, and iPad are trademarks of Apple Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries. Lightning is a trademark of Apple Inc.

I purchased 3 of these. Over time, they all frayed at the base of the lightening connector. I replaced 2 of them via RMA a couple of months ago. Just requested an RMA for the 3rd. This one is fraying like the others. It will not maintain a connection to charge or sync correctly. Unfortunately, these cables don't have enough durability.

Liked these. At first

Pros: Longer than Apple cables. I hate that those are so short.

Cons: Doesn't take long before the lightning end of the cable starts to fray and have connectivity issues.

These cables are good at first, but they just don't last. My first set was RMA'd without much hassle, but they insisted I pay for UPS return shipping which came to $12 and some change for 2 cables. Sure, it's cheaper than buying 2 new cables, but that pretty much defeats the "lifetime warranty" of these. I am hoping someday they go back to the drawing board and redo these so they last.

Cables will fray and split after few weeks - guaranteed

Pros: Price

Cons: Cables split and fray after a few weeks. After 6 months the cables have connectivity issues.

Within a few weeks of purchasing both cables I purchased started to split and fray at the end that connects to the iPhone. I received the cables in August 2014 and now have connectivity issues with both cables. My coworker who originally recommended these cables also had this same issue. Judging by the other reviews this is a common occurrence. Next time I will spend a little more money and get the Apple cables. I've never had an issue with an Apple cable going back as far as my first iPod (several years ago).

Bought 9 cables and all of them failed

Pros: The cables, out of the box, seemed like they were good quality. For the first couple of weeks they performed greatly and I had no issues.

Cons: After the first few weeks, the cables started to come apart at the lightning connector and stopped working one after another. I had bought a total of 9 cables and all of them failed. One of them, I've done an RMA on and the replacement was no better. The replacements was actually a lower performing item.

Overall, I am disappointed with this cable. I spent over $100 on these cables and they all turned to junk.

Poor Construction - All the cords failed - even the replacements

Pros: Packaged well - Shipped Fast - At first everything looks great.

Cons: Cord breaks with regular to low use. I bought a few cables to help my family handle our charging needs. We had them in various rooms to charge up the many devices. Each cable broke slowly but surely. We are good with the cables. No abuse - No pull mid way to remove. They never left the house. Had the cords all replaced - all the replacements broke. The cords are no good & not worth it.

Poor construction - each cord broke - multiple returns - even the replacements broke. So 9 months five original cords broke - five replacement cords broke. So I paid $60 to rent the five cords for less then a year.
